Before: Both girls very well rounded, with Carpenter perhaps a little more robotic or deliberate at times. Gershon with a chamleonesque ability to show different looks, fighting inside or outside, boxing or slugging should be able to more than offset Carpenter’s sheer fitness. Pundits secretly fear a dull fight if Gershon realizes early she can win with movement--but public comments from GG reveal her intention to “put Charisma in perspective”. GG in black push up, leopard print bikini bottoms, CC in black sports bra, red high cut aerobics bottoms.

During R1: Crowd roars as the girls come together, but Gershon immediately established tactical air superiority as Charisma works behind a high guard. GG with chin tucked, hands loose in front of her body, steps in and out, spanking quick left/rights to the waist or upstairs, then bending, stepping out to the side to reset. Neither girl wasting movement--carpenter pivoting slowly, keeping Gershon in front of her, but letting champ get off at will.

R2: Carpenter gets on the board,, stepping in and batting a loud one-two off Gershon’s flanks, but GG steps in to make a statement, bodying up with Charisma and accepting the challenge inside. Hardnosed action as he girls crouch forward, heads rubbing, hands low in front of stomachs--each twisting into short, snapping strokes to the rib cage, chest and mouth at close range. Gershon beats Carpenter up in trench warfare, forcing the younger brunette into slow retreat around the ring.

R3: Carpenter continues to lean in, but brings her hands up off her stomach, snapping the left hook into Gershon’s ribs, but bringing the first back to the guard position at her cheek after every  punch. Gershon laying in with Charisma, using her shoulders inside to nudge CC off balance and set up digging lefts and rights to the midriff, Toned bodies are worked over with constant attention, but in the final minute, Charisma dazzles with biting left hook, smacking Gershon’s jaw, then digging to her lover and GG’s legs give way! Gershon on all fours, shakes her head as she sucks it up, beats the count, and clinches to the bell.

R4: Carpenter a new woman after seeing Gina go down--Charisma confidently bodying up with her guard high, leaning in and banging hard left hooks to the aside and stomach of Gershon. Gershon now rolling with punches, right hand at her cheek, left across her body, twisting and bobbing her torso to minimize Carpenter’s impact. Gina not offensive enough as Carpenter carpet bombs the body for the judges.

R5: Corner urges Gershon to :”just win baby”--exhorting her to get outside and box, GG with good intentions but Carpenter on her like glue, batting at GG’s flanks with spanking lefts and rights, digging up the middle with short right hands to the sternum, and finishing upstairs with a clouting left hook on that sexy mouth, Gershon doing a hood job catching punches on her forearms and shoulders, but she’s getting outworked as tireless Charisma pounds away for points.

R6: Gershon gets her legs back, bouncing Ali style, laying in the slapping backhand jab, then stopping to pop wicked 3 punch combinations. Carpenter now perplexed, still trying to cut the ring off and get close--but GG won’t let her. Midway through the round, Gershon attacks with a rising right hand to the ribs, bending low then coming up with a rising left to buckle Charisma’s legs, Gershon with the up and down movement, bangs away at CC’s body with alternating hands, stepping around her opponent with bewildering speed and angles. Shutout Gershon as Carpenter looks discouraged at the bell.

R7: Gina continues to pressure the opponent, slugging hard, but bending low to make Charisma miss the receipt, double left hooks on the jaw bang Carpenter to the side and she’s having trouble getting off under Gershon’s intense, well coordinated attack.

R8: Gina G in complete control of the opponent, breaks Charisma down with stick and move early, hurts her with gouging single shots with plenty of head movement, then sets down to finish along the ropes as Charisma reels. Carpenter with her arms in, gloves at her face, bends over and cries aloud as Gershon digs in behind the elbows, Gershon touching the top of Carpenter’s head with her left bicep for measurement, then snapping off the left hook to the jaw nearly ahs Carpenter down at the bell.

R9: Gershon continuing the multi-faceted attack--slices and slaps with jabs early, the  comes inside with the overhand right to the rib cage under Carpenter’s high guard. Charisma starting to get rocked as Gena puts her punches together--Gershon standing up straight, twist8ing her body into short brawling rights and lefts as Carpenter is punched groggy from one foot to the other. In the final minute, a desperate Charisma Carpenter bends at the waist and comes up with the mayday counter hook, beating Gina to the punch. Gershon’s mouth piece flies out, her body twisting in the direction of her down hook while her legs give out. Gershon crumpling to the canvas looks stunned, long lashes blinking stupidly as Carpenter stumbles back! GG beats the count but she is wobbly, and Carpenter too badly hurt to finish!

R10: A broken champion, a hobbled challenger--the two brunettes meet at center ring and touch each other with range finding jabs before planting shaky feet and cranking the hooks. Hook to hook Carpenter slowly bangs Gershon back, connecting hard to the mouth and leaving Gina slack-jawed at the midway point. Carpenter flat footed, digs the left with a short stroke to the sternum, and the girls tie up. Fighting out of the clinch, it is all Charisma Carpenter, holding Gina with the left, scooping at her body with the tight right hands. Gershon battered to the ropes, lays in, exhausted, face blank, lips parted as Carpenter slugs her body into submission. Bell rings t end the bombardment, and Charisma lifts her mitts in exhausted triumph, leaning into the vacant Gershon as she lolls on the ropes. Decision: Unanimous Duke Charisma Carpenter.

After: Another stunning triumph as Carpenter overcomes Gina’s skills with a pair of knockdowns to eke out the duke. Gershon did well to recover form the 9th round--the punch she took had KO) written all over it, but refused to qui despite failing the recognition tests at the time. Carpenter vaults to the top of the class, and wins over the biggest names in the sport have her in pound for pound contention for the first time in her career.
